PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Remy Valentine (ranked 1070 p4p, 114 weight class) and Super Man (ranked 2690 p4p, 273 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Valentine might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Man with the Harmonica by Ennio Morricone. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
